Official: Four Barcelona stars called up to Spain squad for UEFA Euro 2024 Qualifiers

With the international break just on the horizon, Spain manager Luis de la Fuente has announced the squad list for their upcoming matches over the next couple of weeks, with as many as four Barcelona players getting selected.

Spain are set to face Scotland and Norway in the UEFA Euro 2024 Qualifiers this month and will be aiming to build on their recent good run of form after having picked up wins over Georgia and Cyprus.

Four Barcelona players in the squad

As mentioned earlier, De la Fuente has now released the squad list for Spain’s next two games against Scotland and Norway and four Barcelona players make the cut.

The four names in question are Gavi, Alejandro Balde, Lamine Yamal, and Ferran Torres.

Gavi and Balde have become regular fixtures in the Spanish national team while Yamal earned his first cap during the international break last month. In fact, the 16-year-old even went on to score on his debut for La Roja.

As for Ferran, the 23-year-old had been out of the national team picture after the World Cup last year but was recalled last month following injuries to Marco Asensio and Dani Olmo.

He had made the most of his chance by scoring twice in the win against Cyprus. That, coupled with his form for Barcelona, has earned him a call-up to the national team squad.

No place for Inigo Martinez, Oriol Romeu

Inigo Martinez had been included on the preliminary squad list by Luis de la Fuente, but the central defender has ultimately not made the final cut.

The same holds for Oriol Romeu as well, who was also on the preliminary list but has not been included in the final squad.

Pedri also misses out due to injury while Marcos Alonso is not in the national team picture at the moment.

Meanwhile, youngster Fermin Lopez has been named in the Spain U-21 squad list for the matches against Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.
